From the age of ten I used to do a paper round Just so I could see the paper round So I could splash in the porna shop And buy sweets till my teeth would rot I used to play football, I used to like dancing Man I tried everything, even karate After five years I had to pull it, 'Cause black belt can't teach you how to dodge bullets I never knew what I wanted to be But I knew what the man above wanted for me They said Jehmal your smart enough to be a doctor, or a lawyer But f*** that them jobs are boring! And footie's getting dry like raving, But shout out to Craig, he's some other kind that made it I don't know my profession yet, quite But one day I'm gonna get signed Just write the check, I'm out here spending money so I gotta make it, Rest to make it Things are different so Don't you take this s*** for granted When the money's in your hand yeah My big bro's emceeing now I might have to try this out And Dizzee Rascal's on TV now S***, this could be my way out Good at English but I hate reading Good grades, just a few exclusions My story's inspirational And with the right help I can execute this out to the nations Or my words can lock down the pavement Skip jamma's basement, Eskimo dance aside, Winding take it straight to the big stages, that'll be amazing But damn I gotta make some I'm doing it independent, spent before you make some Think I know my profession now guys, damn I got stars in my eyes Just write the check, I'm out here spending money so I gotta make it, Rest to make it Things are different so Don't you take this s*** for granted When the money's in your hand yeah If you ever knew what was getting sold Just so we can pay for videos Eight R from the bottom we roll So when the cheques came the first hundred bags got blown Shout at to boy better know, me and Skeppy from the north side we charted on our own So they approached us, we never approached the majors And now look, we majors Just write the check, I'm out here spending money so I gotta make it, Rest to make it Things are different so Don't you take this s*** for granted When the money's in your hand yeah
